A New Year

Jim used his remaining vacation days after the new year so we had some time at home with him.

His parents arrived back in town in order to close on their new house and they brought a few Christmas presents with them.  They brought Jim this head massage thing which was totally awesome because he's been wanting one, but they didn't know it.

Alex had some chocolate one morning.  I love that little boy face.

Annie insisted on her picture the same morning.  She's looking fresh out of bed.

One day we had a south wind blow a 2 foot deep drift all over our long driveway.  We were snowed in without a storm!  Thankfully, after the wind changed directions the next day, our neighbor who owns a snowplow company cleared it for us.  We're thankful for kind neighbors!

We had one final Christmas-ey activity for family home evening this week.  We put together a gingerbread train.

The kids had fun decorating it.

Abby is a good eater and loves her cup.  Aside from prunes, we've moved her straight onto soft table foods.  She's loving it, and I do too.  I never actually had to make her any baby food or buy any except for the starter cereal and prunes.  It's funny (and nice) how things change with each baby.
